That's probably viable. Maybe you should just have two separate classes: Heap and KeyedHeap. The inplace= parameter doesn't really make sense for a KeyedHeap anway, so you could just have:: Heap(sequence=None, inplace=False) KeyedHeap(key, sequence=None) Of course, this approach ends up with a bunch of code duplication again.
